One Way Ticket
Written by Gregory Becker & Troy Jones
Recorded by Billy Currington
Intro.: (D) x 4 bars
I'm a (D)son-of-a-gun and a dad-gum joker
(G)I'm just a crazy, old laid-back loafer
(D)I got a dog looks like a gopher
And (A)he's been a pretty good friend
(D)Play my guitar for the girls I'm meetin'
(G)Writing the songs from the books I'm readin'
(D)I find it odd that I'm breaking even
(A)Look at the money I've spent
(Chorus)
I'm (G)going through life on a one way ticket
(D)Ain't looking back, no, I don't want to miss it
(A)I'm gonna dip my toes in the river of life (D)
Got a (G)big bucket list, and before I kick it
Gonna (D)buy me a Harley and Route Sixty-Six it
Got a (A)one way ticket and I'm gonna enjoy the (D)ride
Threw a (D)dart at the map and it landed on Phoenix
(G)She looked at me like I was from Venus
(D)I grabbed the keys and she grabbed a Kleenex
(A)I headed off into the night
(D)I'm nothing more than a modern day Jonah
In the (G)belly of a whale they call Arizona
(D)Ordering hot wings and cold Coronas
(A)Taking one town at a time
(Chorus)
I'm (G)going through life on a one way ticket
(D)Ain't looking back, no, I don't want to miss it
(A)I'm gonna dip my toes in the river of life (D)
Got a (G)big bucket list, and before I kick it
Gonna (D)buy me a Harley and Route Sixty-Six it
Got a (A)one way ticket and I'm gonna enjoy the (D)ride
(Chorus 2)
I'm (G)going through life on a one way ticket
Wanna (D)visit New England and sail the Pacific
(A)Gamble in Reno, give Frappuccino a (D)try
Gonna (G)call up the boss man and tell him to stick it
(D)Change the to-do's, to the already did it's
Got a (A)one way ticket and I'm gonna enjoy the (D)ride
(Tag)
I got a (G)one way ticket and (A)I'm gonna enjoy the (D)ride, … that's right ……
